Found this in Costa Rica. The beer has a nice malt profile while not getting too heavy. Some slight sweetness throughout, almost cola-like but not quite. Not as heavy bread. Just a solid, well rounded malt character. Slight hop bitterness in the finish. Just enough to want another sip. Very well balanced, and super drinkable!A good beer for the tropical heat.

De Supercor Express. En vaso aflautado de Hirsch. Viendo Regreso al Futuro con la familia. Lager industrial correcta. Sin notas discordantes y justo lo que uno espera en una birra de este tipo, ni más ni menos

Lata: sorprendetemente decente! Buen cuerpo y balance de malta y lupulo. Para repetir

Al verter la botella notamos un color dorado de la cerveza y una buena cabeza espumosa que se va en poco tiempo. Aroma débil a malta y levadura. En boca es sencilla, con un sabor malteado y algo de caramelo.

 

As far as non-craft beer goes, Keler can't be beat. In my experience, no mass-produced lager or pilsener comes close in terms of flavor and mouthfeel (although Poland's Żywiec is mighty satisfying). Of course, compared to craft beer, Keler would lose a point overall, but on that scale, few big brands reach a 3 in my book. Even if it weren't so inexpensive, I'd still stock this 6% ABV "strong lager" as my house beer because it is more enjoyable than any commercial product I've tasted with an ABV of under 7% which is stronger than I like. The only brew I'd rate higher than Keler in the 330ml yellow can is Keler in the 200ml bottle. Depending on how long the beer has set in the can, it can pick up a slight mustiness that the bottle version avoids. But the bottled beer costs more per ml. Since this is my first review and I've not mastered the vocabulary of beer appreciation, I can only say the golden color is robust, a half-tone darker and thus manlier than US and Canadian beers, the aroma is nothing special but I don't pretend to have a champion nose, the taste is predominantly malty but fades to dry on the swallow, and the mouthfeel is the Best in Class, suggesting a craft beer more than a mass-market brew. For a more detailed discussion of Keler's attributes, I defer to the excellent eview posted below by StonedTrippin.

 

as the euro lagers go, this is of astounding overall quality, and it baffles me that it is not more prevalent, here, and everywhere, this beer just tastes so appealing, easy, and universal to me, i really liked it for what it is, and despite the can seeming tiny in my hand (maybe because it is, or maybe because this beer goes down like water), its one of my favorite recent euro brews. i think these guys are underrated in general, but this is an all malt tasting lager to me with way more alcohol in it than most of these have, plus its priced super cheap, which adds to its appeal, especially in developing countries. highly charged on the bubbles, a solid grainy body and flavor, and a crisp and easy yet very unique and identifiable lager yeast strain that makes this dry but does not compromise its stature. i could drink some absurd amount of these cans as long as they were cold, like maybe 30 in a sitting, its that kind of beer, but it is way better and has a lot more character than most others in its class. really good, especially when measured against other international lagers in the same price range...

 

 

De las cervezas peninsulares industriales más bebibles. Es fuerte y con sabor
